Caucus of Shills

The so-called Congressional black caucus is one of the biggest frauds in America, as practically all of its members, with maybe a handful of exceptions, are corporate shills that do the bidding of corporations, interventionists and internationalists.  These are the same congresspersons that are some of the biggest promoters of globalism that takes away jobs and opportunities from citizens, and dramatically drives up housing costs for ordinary citizens.  But they're not worried, because their extravagant congressional salaries and perks, along with the incumbency election racket, protects them from such economic jolts as fierce competition for jobs from non-citizens and thousand dollar-a-month rents.  If every last one of them were defeated in the November election, the Americans that this caucus identifies with would be hard put to notice the difference.

Washington's Most Rightist Democrat: "Mr. Smith," a la Jimmy Stewart, He's Not

This is Not "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" by Any Stretch of the Imagination Despite a recent council campaign, I have plenty of energy to continue a different campaign for U.S. representative that will bring the people's constitutional rights to the forefront, among other matters.  The rightist Democrat, Adam Smith, will soon have to explain the stolen election of '04 (even as an unwitting beneficiary, he likely knows something), his votes for keeping the status quo of an overreaching, intrusive N.S.A. that is clamping down on the Bill of Rights instead of ensuring the checks and balances he has sworn an oath to do, his vote for doing away with habeas corpus (our right to judicial review if we are jailed) through the National Defense Authorization Act, his willingness to keep America in interventionist mode, his so-called free trade mantra that has kept America under the yoke of internationalist regimes and...

Smith and Drescher

Rep. Adam Smith Endorses a Card-Carrying Republican   People who don't ordinarily follow Newcastle, Washington politics aren't going to know this, pretty much, but Representative Adam Smith, Democrat from Washington state, actually endorsed a card-carrying Republican, John Drescher, for Newcastle City Council.  Drescher supported George W. Bush and John McCain, respectively, in two recent presidential elections (2004 & 2008).  Smith is the same rightist Democrat (the kind of Democrats also known as "Blue Dogs") who benefitted from the other curious election of 2004, though unwittingly. Smith's voting record is like a dream to America's far right wing, shown here as follows: Congressman Adam Smith has voted for the following (pretty much not in accordance with his district): the national defense authorization act proviso that ends Habeas Corpus (judicial review for persons who are jailed), even for Ame...
